Just to prove it's not only Apple that makes silly changes ...

I "upgraded" to a newer version of Firefox (still ancient by some
people's standards), and they've made some silly changes. Three I've
found so far:

   - [Not entirely if this is a change] Clicking in the address box
     or search box no longer selects the existing content - you 
     have to manually perform a Select All. 

   - Holding down the mouse button for a second or so (on a link or 
     bookmark for example) no longer displays the pop-up menu - you
     have to Control-Click.

   - Clicking on links in other applications causes Firefox to
     open them in a new tab - in the old version it re-used the
     current tab.
